No idea what you're talking about.

A valid http URL for the Firefox 1.5.0.2 release directory, yes.

Checking third party sites is a waste of your time if your concern is
to determine whether or not the Mozilla folks are releasing a new

I've got no problem with your checking on & on & on, just with your
premature bleating. I've suggested you wait longer before bleating, so
that I (or someone else) doesn't need to correct the misinformation you
post; it would be great if you'd consider the suggestion rather than
just label me thickheaded.
